Of course it's real

 

Is Mary Unknown7 an AI singer?  Yeah!  Sure!

By the way, I gave you a homework assignment one month ago to upstage Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan on the Internet.  You didn't even try, right?  This is probably why people think that men make better guitarists.  It's called "being aggressive".

Polished

 

Definitely not a jam band.  Damn, that girl can squeak!  Missing Persons had such a tight and unique sound but I can only remember "Spring Session M", their legendary album.  I think the guitarist then joined Duran Duran, then became a gay porn star.

Missing Persons was a Los Angeles band.  I was thinking that it would be better for you to move back to California before I marry you, as opposed to after I die.  Nashville is right between NYC and LA, which makes it better for business.  But as long as you maintain the stream then it doesn't matter where you are.  Hopefully you can get moving back to California out of your craw.  I warn you that moving is expensive and may cost you your band, and being a working adult is not the same feeling as being an innocent child.  You have time until I build a house for you here.  So get in motion if you really want to live in California.  InshaAllah. 

I haven't received any donations nor financial help since returning to Malaysia 17 years ago, I have to live on whatever money my 87 year old mother gives me and she has given me less money this month.  I'm not going to proceed with Shadowplay's next album until I upgrade my musical and computer equipment. InshaAllah. In the meanwhile, I want to master the Qur'an.

The impresario

 

It must be nice to return to your birthplace at the age of 18 driving a nice car.  I returned at 42 as a bum, and the whole town knew I was a bum.  I'm still a bum, a bum who doesn't ask.  Anyway, you don't need a career boost from anyone, so don't accept offers for such.  Just learn to manage what Allah has given you, and ride the snake.

Hidden in plain sight

 

Church bells and singing in the middle of the night out in the middle of nowhere.  That's the KKK.

Ziggy Stardust

 

I found this masterpiece on a cassette at a yard sale.  I also found a small portable mono cassette player the size of a Walkman, also at a yard sale.  It was a Sony, but not a Walkman.  I played Ziggy Stardust over and over again on the tiny speaker.  And to this very day, the tiny mono speaker is my preferred method of listening to music.  Only now, we have cell phones.

If you made a concept album, would you play the entire thing live?
